Great unit. 6 x 100W panels operate at around 110V with no load. No radio hash.

Someone asked about the maximum array voltage. A: The manual says 150, but Renogy says it shouldn't exceed 135. I'm using 6 panels at 100 watts and it's usually around 110 when not under load. This is an intelligent controller. The batteries are either 12 or 24, with an emphasis on 24. So I have 4x 122 Ah Marine in series/parallel. Very happy with it. I have a 1000w high efficiency inverter that draws around 300w on a regular basis and the batteries remain fully charged despite feeding the 12v subsystem through the converter. So I have 24/7 motion-sensitive lighting and pure power for amateur radio stations. There is nothing like a PWM controller that makes ham radio impossible. Everything in it

Pros
